They rank a flag that is a blank color higher than nearly every other flag? Hmmm, okay.

Currently I only suggest 7a.

7b - is the Military flag.
7c - is the Presidential flag. (to go with the Presidential Avatar)
7d - is Capitol flag.

I have to say that the Siro flags are the best use of colour for a tropical civ. IMHO.

I agree, however, to me its just too....bad. I hate the colour combo Green and Yellow. Reminds me of something I do not care to mention.

No offense intended to Siro, of course.

Yes they're ugly colours, but I can see in my mind that if those colours were used in Trips flag, it would look good.

Well.... I think of this.

a) we're a yellow civ
b) we're in the jungle
c) we're basically egypt

if you have a better color scheme suggestion - i'm happy to hear. I still have the PSD and can change it in a second.

Thanks alot wise-guy.
I could have made it a lot nicer looking, but I had to work around those bananas. You have no idea how hard it is to make a flag look professional while encorporating bananas.

By the way, a bit (lot) OT, but Sn00py have you gotten to work on that 'fairy tale' graphics mod yet? It was looking real nice and I haven't seen anything about it lately.

I will get to that fairy tale one, but I am actually currently working on something different. So far it is making Civ3 look a zillion times better.

Hopefully I'll be done in about a month.

I believe that this flag is the most adequate one. Reasons:

1) This sun-like apperance represents the light that freedom gives us, and democracy is actually the government system that allow us to have more.

2) The colors are widely used by a lot of flags in the world, Rusia, European Union, USA, Japan...

3) MarkG, check this flag...

Wow. They say the American flag is bad because it has to many stars! Those stars happen to represent something. They are critizing the flags without even looking at what they may mean to the countries that own them.

They also call the Union Jack, Englands flag too busy. That flag happens to be a combination of the flags of England/Wales, Scotland, and Ireland. Every single thing on that flag represents a part of the UK. Its a stupid site...

Maybe its not the flag they are voting against, but the countries. Perhaps resentment against the United States and the United Kingdom?

Either way, this can all be blamed on the democrats!
